Introduction

Salvage consists of diving at different shipwreck sites around the map and "excavating" items, usually treasure and other existing items such as glass, lockpicks, and even rum. Being a legal run, this run will not get you into any trouble with the Altis police and is eligible for profit bonuses when doing this run with a Worker's Protection License (WPL).

Starting the Run

Before starting the run make sure you have a list of required items (listed below):

  • A excavation tool (Purchased at general stores/ markets). Required for collecting salvage
  • Food & Water
  • Bergen Backpack for space
  • A Speedboat or an SDV to store salvaged materials
  • Diving gear (Scuba Suit, Rebreather, Scuba Goggles)

Gathering Salvage

To begin collecting Salvage, go to any marked purple shipwreck site (shown below) and dive below the surface. Pressing “Y” to open the inventory while touching the downed ship and clicking “use” on the excavation tools will begin the automated collection. Salvage collection will continue until the player’s virtual inventory is full. Once max capacity is reached, it is recommended that as much salvage is placed inside the chosen vehicle’s inventory (make sure to press the Windows key on the vehicle and click “Mark Vehicle” to prevent the vehicle from despawning). Repeat the process until all capacities are full.

Selling

Depending on which vehicle was chosen at the beginning and which dive site was chosen, this process can vary slightly but is fundamentally the same. Leaving the salvage site, players can either head straight to the coast closest to the Salvage Connoisseur to sell or to the nearest garage to pull a vehicle and then head to the Salvage Connoisseur. It is recommended that players go to the nearest ATM and deposit their freshly earned cash before returning to their water craft to continue selling the rest of the salvage stored in the selected vehicle with the same process. Note: some items gathered at shipwreck sites are not all sellable at the Salvage Connoisseur, refer to the virtual items page to see the prices of these items.

This map shows the different locations of salvage-related locations. The spots marked in red are the locations of shipwrecks where players can collect salvage. The spots marked in green are locations of Salvage Connoisseurs, where players can sell salvage goods.

Payout

  • Using a bergen backpack, RHIB water craft with fully upgraded storage as the “middle ground” option, only collecting Salvage goods and dumping the rest (glass, lockpicks, Rum) at the Kavala shipwreck site, this run takes approximately 34:01 minutes to complete.
  • The average payout with the setup mentioned above pays approximately $161,068. This can be increased to an average of $185,228 with a WPL. A very docile payout for a very docile run.
  • Choosing what to keep or dump can affect the net profit from these runs, especially in selling Rum, but greatly affects the average time required. Choosing to sell glass and rum requires traveling across the map (also selling rum at the moonshine distributor is not legal).
